Hi, false option for `.createOutlines` remain original textframe. textframe.createOutlines(false) or you can add label or name to outlined text. var textframe_contents = textframe.parentStory.contents var outlined_group = textframe.createOutlines() outlined_group[0].label = textframe_contents thank you mg.

Hi `myText` is not proper variable name, this is Cell Object. var myText = myTable.rows[6].cells[3]; var scriptLabel = myText.toString(); I guess using `appliedParagraph.name` to Cell's Text solve your issue. thank you mg.

Hi, this snippet select a top-level-group what I understand. is my understanding correct? var sel = app.selection[0]; var ret = find_parent(sel, 'Group'); function find_parent (obj, constructor) { if (obj.parent.parent.constructor.name !== constructor) { return obj.parent } else { return arguments.callee(obj.parent, constructor); } return null } if (ret) { ret.select(); } // page/spread/story // top-level-group ----> select this group // parent-parent-group // parent-group // target thank you mg.

Hi, Generally using `[target].changeGrep()` won't work. I found another way, this work for me (cc version9.3) without unlocking textframes and layers. main(); function main() { var doc = app.activeDocument; var find_grep_obj = { appliedFont: "Arial", fontStyle: "Regular", }; var change_grep_obj = { appliedFont: "Myriad Pro", fontStyle: "Bold", }; with (app.findChangeGrepOptions) { // includeFootnotes = false; // includeHiddenLayers = false; includeLockedLayersForFind = true; // includeLockedStoriesForFind = true; // includeMasterPages = false; // kanaSensitive = true; // widthSensitive = true; } var match = grep_find(doc, find_grep_obj); for (var mi=0, mlen=match.length; mi < mlen ; mi++) { var container = match.parentStory.textContainers; for (var ti=0, tlen=container.length; ti < tlen ; ti++) { // without unlocking // container[ti].locked = false; // container[ti].itemLayer.locked = false; }; for (var prop in change_grep_obj) { match[mi][prop] = change_grep_obj[prop]; }; }; function grep_find (target_obj, find_grep_obj) { app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing; app.findGrepPreferences.properties = find_grep_obj; var result = target_obj.findGrep(); app.findGrepPreferences = NothingEnum.nothing; return result; } } thank you mg.

Hi, is it ok for you? it seems `app.activeScript` or `$.fileName` is what you wanted. #target indesign try { // not active in ESTK // return script path if run from ScriptPanel alert(app.activeScript); } catch(e){ alert(e); } // return bridgetalk if run with double clicking jsx // return script path if run from ScriptPanel alert($.fileName); alert($.includePath); thank you mg.

Hmm it seems your screenshot is not pausing. well, click the right side of line number, red dot will appear. red (enable) -> dark red (disable) -> none (remove) you can also use this breakpoint marker does this work?

Hi you can fix some part of this script. var myDoc = app.activeDocument; var myColor = myDoc.swatches.item("MARKUP"); if (!myColor.isValid){ alert("NO SWATCH"); exit(); } now you can't exit if the document don't have 'MARKUP' swatch. but this code wont work in my InDesign CC, I found same issue [JS CS4] findObjectPreferences.fillColor error |Adobe Community https://forums.adobe.com/thread/583184 I very much regret to say I don't have any idea to solve this problem. thank you mg

Hi Loic try following snippet I use sometimes. but if `t.textContainers[0].recompose()` method didn't work well, it may not work.
var main = function(xe) {
var t = xe.texts[0].parentStory;
t.pointSize = 36;
t.leading = t.pointSize*1.2;
while ( t.lines.length !== t.textContainers[0].lines.length ) {
t.pointSize-=.5;
t.leading = t.pointSize*1.2;
}
}

Hi, try this snippet.
var doc = app.documents[0];
var rects = doc.rectangles;
for (var i=0, len=rects.length; i < len ; i++) {
var rect = rects;
var include_img = rect.graphics.length > 0 ||
rect.images.length > 0;
if (include_img) {
$.writeln(rect.id);
rect.fit(FitOptions.FRAME_TO_CONTENT);
}
};
if you want to specify graphic type, use rect.epss.length instead of rect.graphics.length for example. thankyou mg

Hi this is a sample code to modify overset graphicframe by using huge temporary textframe;
// document has a textframe and its story has a overset graphicframe with large image
var doc = app.documents[0];
var stry = doc.stories[0];
var imgframe = stry.pageItems[0];
var insert_point = imgframe.parent;
var insert_point_idx = insert_point.index;
// create temporary textframe to rescue the graphicframe
var huge_textframe = doc.textFrames.add({geometricBounds:[0,0,4000,8000]});
// duplicate the insertpoint with the graphicframe to temporary textframe
var dup_insert_point = insert_point.duplicate(LocationOptions.AT_BEGINNING, huge_textframe.parentStory);
// resize the graphicframe
var dup_imgframe = dup_insert_point.pageItems[0];
dup_imgframe.geometricBounds = [0,0,300,400];
dup_imgframe.fit(FitOptions.CONTENT_TO_FRAME);
// restore the modified graphicframe to the end of original textframe story
var mod_insert_point = dup_insert_point.duplicate(LocationOptions.AT_END, insert_point.parent);
// move to original position
mod_insert_point.move(LocationOptions.BEFORE, insert_point.parent.characters[insert_point_idx])
// remove temporary textframe and overset graphicframe
stry.characters.itemByRange(insert_point_idx+1,insert_point_idx+1).remove();
huge_textframe.remove();

Hi you should duplicate/move a spread instead of a page. try simply modify around L18 - 20 like below.
var source_doc = app.open(source_file);
var sourceSpreads = app.activeDocument.spreads.item(0);
sourceSpreads.duplicate(LocationOptions.AFTER, source_doc.spreads.item(0));
sourceSpreads.move(LocationOptions.AFTER, destination_doc.spreads.item(-1));
app.activeDocument.close(SaveOptions.NO);

@Laubender nice! I could get those CONST? by this script
var key_string = app.findKeyStrings("Adobe 日本語単数行コンポーザー");
$.writeln(key_string); // => $ID/HL Single J
and in the same way CS5 doesn't has "Adobe World-Ready Single-line Composer" yet.
// "Adobe World-Ready Single-line Composer"
// app.findKeyStrings("Adobe 多言語対応単数行コンポーザー")
pstyle.composer = "$ID/HL Single Optyca";
I could add "Adobe World-Ready Single-line Composer" to the paragraph style, but I don't know it works or not. thank you
